Dopitis Pulcheprima x stb-info please

[tomz]

Bought this orchid at a small nursery but cannot find any information about it on line or in my orchid books. Can anyone give me some information on growing conditions?

The tag is printed very clearly as "Dopitis" but they could have made a mistake. Do you have info on Doritis?

I have a few. I grow it just like a Phalaenopsis except I give mine a little stronger light. Are you familiar with Phalaenopsis?

Ted-thanks for your help. I just found it on line with a picture and it is definitly "doritis". Mine is in flower so it was easy to verify. I have a number of Phalaenopsis so it will fit right in. Thanks again.

I think the genus Doritis has been combined with Phalaenopsis now, so Doritis pulcherrima is now Phalaenopsis pulcherrima
